Prepare for another exciting day along the Oregon Coast! After breakfast at the hotel, we'll begin our day with a quick stop at the charming Yaquina Bay Lighthouse. The morning continues with exploration at Seal Rock, where you can also explore art galleries and witness mesmerizing glass blowing.
Lunchtime will be a treat at the famous Chowder Bowl (this is where the locals go for their chowder), and then we'll delve into the world of art at the Newport Visual Arts Center. In the afternoon, explore Yaquina Bay aboard an enchanting Bay Boat Tour, offering unique views of the bay and estuaries. Now, having seen the beach, lighthouses, glassblowing and the bay from a boat, we will visit the Opening Night of the Seafood and Wine Festival which has been going strong since 1977. You will be able to visit top seafood and wine vendors all under one roof.
After a big day, if we are still in need of nourishment, the Barge Inn (the 'Home of Winos, Dingbats, and Riff Raff' since 1935) can help to satisfy our hunger. Return to the hotel later this evening for a well-deserved sleep!
